The house had everything we needed! Very clean, comfortable and up-to-date. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub, paddle boards, and fishing off the pier. We had so much fun staying here!

Aww thank you so much for the kind words! We’re so glad you enjoyed it. We hope to have y'all back again soon! Thanks for keeping it so clean!
This is very nice home, very clean, great setup, and everything provided that we needed. My sister and I rented it for our annual Mother’s Day trip. We absolutely loved the home and the pool. We did not use the hot tub. We loved hanging out on the deck as well. All rooms are very nice and very big. The kitchen living dining room is very nice. We loved all of the big TVs in the home as well. Lots of games and activities in the home and garage. Host was awesome and always reached out to ensure we didn’t need anything. She is one of the best host we have ever had while renting homes. One comment - please be aware you will have to climb stairs. The second floor is the main living area but full bath and 3 bedrooms are on the 3rd floor. There is a bedroom and half bath on the 2nd floor. It was fine for us but I just wanted to make comment for others.
If you want a peace, quiet, and beyond beautiful, this is the place for you!!Amy, our host, was nothing short of amazing! She was quickly responsive and even gave recommendations on a local pizza place. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed! We always bring extra toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, dishwasher packs, and laundry detergent. We didnt need to!! Not only was there an abundance of all the essentials, they offer an abundance of spices for this cook that usually brings her own, but left them all at home! Now lets discuss the beds. The mattresses were like clouds from the heavens and the pillows were like the softest marshmallows on the planet!! There were lots of games for my family to play during a bit of rain. The view behind the house is beautiful!! The pool was just perfect and the hot tub was exceptional! We were able to fish quietly and caught several ladyfish, sharks, saltwater catfish, and a blue crab! Now, if stairs are not your thing, I would choose another place. There are LOTS of stairs! I knew this before booking because i asked in advance. I have a bad hip and choose to use these stairs as part of my therapy. It worked out beautifully! I can not say enough good things and I hope that one day we can make it back to enjoy this beautiful home!!!
